Family Programs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

The Museum hosts themed open houses with craft projects, hands-on activities, music, and food. Learning about other cultures has never been so fun! Open houses take place on Saturday afternoons, and admission is free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Museum also sponsors occasional all-ages workshops in which participants learn about a particular culture and complete a related craft project. There is a small fee for these workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please visit our Events calendar<\/a> of the site for information about upcoming programs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Cultures Up Close<\/a> is an online initiative offering opportunities to learn about people, traditions, and celebrations around the world through crafts and activities that can be done at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each post gives information about a specific cultural topic, often relating to objects in the Museum collections, and instructions for a related craft activity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
